The wedding went very well. Sarah Barker decorated the church beautifully! I don't have the pictures back yet but will post them as soon as I do! The photographer took lots and lots of pics from the ceremony until Sarah and Courtney left the building! Flew the Coop played for the wedding and that was fun to have them there and the little kids loved the music and they were all dancing, there were also a few adults doing a jig now and then! Jennifer did everyone's hair and it turned out beautiful. Sarah's hair was so very pretty on her day, Chad even had to tell her on Sunday when she picked up Keleigh how beautiful she looked at the wedding, I think that was so sweet. Chad walked her down the isle, and as he hugged her to give her hand to her groom he told her he loved her and she started to cry, which caused Chad and myself tears along with her sister Jennifer, then when the ceremony was over we went to say our congrats and Chad made her cry again, so it was an emotional day for sure. Keleigh had a feeling something was up that was really different I think, she looked very puzzled most of the evening. She did enjoy the band and she did some dancing herself!
We have lots of thank yous to send out. First of course to the decorator and her husband, who did a marvelous job, our sincere thanks! Then to Flew the Coop, thanks for bringing the fun! Special thanks to Jennifer & Brianne for taking over and doing so much and for being such a huge help with the clean up and loading of stuff, she was truly sent from heaven to help us! Thanks to Aunt Pat for doing all the chocolate covered strawberries and the beautiful frosted sugar cookies and she even did the frosting in Sarah's colors, so cute! Thanks to all those who helped in Courtneys family, his grandma Jolene was a huge help with the punch and the cookies and miscellaneous items as well as the money they gave us to help out! A huge thanks to Jodie Schofield and Robin Simmons for coming after the ceremony to help put away the chairs and keep the buffet table taken care of! Many thanks to all the sisters who provided the brownies, assorted cookies, and lemon bars at the reception. We just have the best ward, and so much thanks goes out to everyone who helped make this a great day, and provided us with many special memories.
The ceremony was about 6:30, Sarah walked down the isle with Chad to the new version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow, once the ceremony was over it was photo op time. Sarah then had her first dance with her groom to a song he sent her one day a while ago, then her dad and daughter dance with Chad, it was a Miley and Billy Ray Cyrus song. Then there was some socializing, and cutting of the cake and more socializing! All in all it was a great evening. Sarah looked beautiful and happy and of course Courtney seemed happy too! They make a cute little couple and I'm so happy they set a goal and made it happen! Now their next goal is to be sealed in one year!
Pictures to come later!
